Choose a Medical Career to Suit Your Personality

If you’re unsure whether medical school is right for you, it may be reassuring to consider the wide variety of jobs available to doctors — jobs that suit every personality type. Experts say there are an array of clinical and nonclinical career options that physicans with either an M.D. or D.O. are uniquely qualified to perform. Those who want to treat patients can explore and specialize in a variety of fields, including radiology, psychiatry and surgery. Those who don’t can consider positions in health administration, health policy, health advocacy and medical research.
